Need help with unexpected T-STRING error

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I'm a newbie and I'm still learning PHP. However this error has me stumped. I've googled, searched the forums, but I can't seem to fix this. I'm sure the fix is obvious, but I so new I really need help. Thanks.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /public_html/send.php on line 4

Code: <?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);

function valid_email($str)
{
return ( ! preg_match("/^([a-z0-9+_-]+)(.[a-z0-9+_-]+)*@([a-z0-9-]+.)+[a-z]{2,6}$/ix", $str)) ? FALSE : TRUE;
}

if($_POST['subject']!=""){
echo 'Dirty Spammer! Your message was NOT sent.';
} else {

if( isset($_POST['firstName']) && isset($_POST['lastName']) && isset($_POST['Email']) && valid_email($_POST['Email'])==TRUE && isset($_POST['message']) && strlen($_POST['message'])>15)
{
$to = 'contact@mikemanormusic.com';
$headers = 'From: '.$_POST['Email'].''. "rn" .
'Reply-To: '.$_POST['Email'].'' . "rn" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$subject = "Your Simple AJAX Contact Form";
$message = htmlspecialchars($_POST['message']);
$spam = $_POST['subject'];

if(mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers))
{//we show the good guy only in one case and the bad one for the rest.
echo 'Thank you '.$_POST['firstName'].'. Your message was sent.';
echo '<noscript> <a href="http://www.yourdomain.com">Back to yourdomain.com</a></noscript>';
}
else {
echo "Message not sent.";
echo "Please make sure you're not running this on localhost and also that you are allowed to run mail() function from your webserver.";
}
}
else {
echo "Please make sure you filled in all the required fields, that you entered a valid email and also that your message contains more then 15 characters.";
echo "<noscript> Use your browser's back button or <a href="http://www.yourdomain.com">click here</a></noscript> to try again.";
}
?>
